Hope he and his family are alright. It would stink if something happened to the car too, but cars can be rebuilt or replaced.

Very shortly before his last posts there was mention of making some passes soon.

Haven't heard anything but it sure makes it easy to speculate that testing went BAD and the car got parked.

Sincerely hope life just got busy and he just hasn't gotten back to the car.
Nope car is great and never made it to the track yet.
